@Angelic
There's always hope, but the chance that all will be awesome at the same time? Small...

@Purple Cow

I hope in 2010 many participating countries bring the best to Eurovision because the contest will be so much more interesting and not so monotone :)

@Marko

I don't even know him .. :P That should be a good sign for a country I guess, but I also know that we got lots of possible shit to choose from. From the V to the olendam. Because the new broadcaster has a shit taste. Although I really like the 3js.

I am not that much into Serbian music.. but I usually love anything Balkan :D

@Angelic
I love both the songs you mentioned, I don't really like Alexandra Burke because she seems quite average as an X-factor winner. Well that partly has to do with the fact that she sang Hallelujah and our X-Factor winner a few months later thought hey let's sing Hallelujah! And I thought her version was quite plain :P, and the Dutch winner quite good :P

The UK has an awesome music scene but somehow.. like some other countries in ESC, you don't see the real stars in Eurovision.

I think Cheryl Cole's new song "Fight for this love" is fantastic and her performance last week was amazing :) as for Alexander Burke i use to like her in the beginning but now i think she is too big-headed, at least Leona Lewis seems more down to earth as a person and not to mention has a more distinct voice.

It is about time the UK sent a song similar to "Kyla ft Crazy Cousinz- Do you mind" a song like that would definetly win in my opinion :)

@Marko

Some UK Rappers are nothing to write home about in my opinion especially when you compare them to American Rappers ;)

@Marko
I liked it but I think that's it, and yes.. I liked the Dutch version better than the English version.. it was kinda cliché.

Onaj Pravi is great, I even used it in a report for History that counts for my exams.

It's a bit strange for me that you don't like Malta, I thought you will! :D
I think it will be between Sweden and Belgium for victory! :)

My favourites in Kyev JESC 2009 are:
1. Sweden - Mimmi Sanden - "Du", AMAZING song, very professional job for JESC, she sings very good like her older sisters, I hope Sweden will win!! ;)
2. Malta - Francesca & Mikaela - "Double trouble", very funy and sweet, really good for JESC
3. Belgium - Laura Omloop - "Zo verliefd", OK song, I think it will win, and I will be suttisfied enough! ;)

My country is participating in Kyev too, I think Ništa Lično - "Onaj pravi" are not that bad as some ppl say and i wish them good luck, they are sweet! :) :)

Romania is OK too!

@Kenan
Well Belgium is slightly higher in my rankings than the Netherlands, but most of the teens and children I know here, support Laura. They think Ralf's good too but they're kinda fed up with the AVRO. Because you get to see the selections in an early stage and they always make some big mistakes there.
